thanks everyone, I also entered the table runner in my 1st quilt show this weekend

Very nice. I really like the blue one. They seem to float on the background fabric.

Good Job

Craftybear - Love your table runner - pretty colors. I just learned yesterday how to do the tube quilting - on this forum (love the forum)and really liked it. I'm NEW to quilting and thought this looked pretty easy. Last night I grabbed some scraps and made a block and LOVED it - can't quit looking at it - LOL. First problem - I love the color combination but it was scraps that I had from a class I took and I don't have any more. I want to go to Joann's and see if they still have it so I can make a table runner. Second problem. I don't know how to "set it in points" (don't know if I'm saying that right) like you did. I had planned to just put three blocks together "square" but I like the way you did them. Can you help me or point me in the right direction to learn how to do that? Thanks ever so much!

Great job!
don't you love this pattern...so easy but looks hard!

Oh - DUH!!!! I was pictureing my block as square - just went to the sewing room and looked at it - double duh - the only way it can go is at point. Like I said - I'm a newbee - but I'll learn!

Yes - easy! If I can do it - it's got to be easy! LOL!

Very nice! Wonderful job. Aren't the tubes great? Everything you do with them comes out perfect! Love it!

Very nice :-P

:thumbup: Whoopee - I did it! I "think" I am posting my first try a tube quilting. Can't wait to get material to make a table runner. Can someone tell me (new quilter here) how much fabric I would need to buy to make a table runner with 3 blocks and to add a 3" border, plus the backing and binding. I'd sure appreciate it.
